Rana Higgins, MDWelcome to the Medical College of Wisconsin General Surgery Residency Program! Our mission is to foster the professional and personal development of our residents. Residents in our program have a broad exposure to complex quaternary care at our main Froedtert & MCW Hospital campus, in a wide range of surgical sub-specialties, including surgical oncology, colorectal, minimally invasive, bariatrics, trauma, critical care, vascular, transplant and thoracic surgery. Residents also have extensive experience during their training at Children’s Wisconsin, the VA and community hospitals. Unique aspects of our program include opportunities for dedicated research years during training which are not mandatory, electives during the third year of clinical training, dedicated wellness time, protected weekly didactic curriculum, numerous skills labs, a structured robotics curriculum, and global health opportunities. We look forward to welcoming you at MCW!
